Overview

  • Authorities published the August 22 mobilization list, led by a 07:30 action by the Unión Nacional de Técnicos y Profesionistas Petroleros at the Pemex Tower in Miguel Hidalgo.
  • The SSC notice for today also details concentrations in Xochimilco, Coyoacán, Cuauhtémoc and Benito Juárez, plus evening fan gatherings and motorcycle rides that could disrupt corridors.
  • After heavy morning rains on August 21, the Metro implemented its ‘marcha de seguridad’ on Lines 2, 3, 8, 9, A and 12, resulting in slower train movement and waits of about six minutes on several lines.
  • C5 reported 10 blockages and at least one rodada scheduled on August 21 across central alcaldías, and local outlets advised using alternate routes to bypass the Zócalo, Reforma and Insurgentes.
  • Commuters are advised to monitor C5, the Centro de Orientación Vial and STC Metro for real‑time advisories, plan extra travel time and consider detours such as Eje 1 Norte or Eje Central.
